- Abstract:
- Autograph manuscript, signed, on paper, of a list of many of the Knights of the Round Table and summaries of their histories as given in Thomas Malory's Morte d'Arthur. Some entries are accompanied by pen and ink drawings of coats-of-arms. The work may have been modeled on Les devise des armes de chevaliers de la table ronde, published by Antoine Verard. Grimken's preface notes that he has not included "many faned and vaine taylles" and connects his interest in the Round Table with the archery fellowship founded by "Kynge Henry of fames memory," Prince Arthur's Knights. The preface concludes with "vivat Regina."

- Abstract:
- Manuscript, on paper, in two secretary hands. The Roll of Battle Abbey, in English, on the first two pages, is followed by a chronicle of the kings of Britain from Noah to Edward IV. The text, in Latin, emphasizes the descent of the early kings from Brutus; the account of the life and reign of King Arthur contains details from Geoffrey of Monmouth's account as well as from the Mabinogion and from Nennius's Historia. The layout of the volume reflects the origin of the text in roll format; the descent of the kings and noble families after Edward I are outlined in the genealogical diagrams but without accompanying narrative text.
